Girard 2009 Dutton Ranch – Mill Station Chardonnay (Russian River Valley)

Country: US / Dutton Ranch – Mill Station
Variety: Chardonnay California
Winery: Girard / Russian River Valley

This is a rich, complex Chardonnay that’s made to appeal to fans of the variety. Acidity brightens the green apple, peach and pear flavors, while oak brings notes of buttered toast and caramel. The alcohol is a little high and warm, making the wine ready to drink now.
